Description de l'ouvrage:
When Life magazine unveiled its list of the one hundred most influential Americans of the 20th century, the selection committee was guided by one question: How would our lives be different if each of the honorees did not live? Not surprisingly, Walt Disney made the list.

In addition to a complete biography, Jackson explores Disney's impact on American mass media and popular culture by focusing on animation, live-action film, documentary film, television, books, comic books, magazines, sheet music and recordings, theme parks, business, and the over-all Disney vision. A bibliographic essay examines sources of Disney scholarship, including a listing of resources available at the Walt Disney Archives in Burbank, California. Appendices provide a Disney chronology, Disney film and television credits, Disney's awards, and a listing of theme parks.

Revue de Presse:
." . . an extremely useful, well written and researched guide to the monumental coverage currently available. . . . Recommended."-Classic Images

"A compendium of the enormous short and feature output of this animation empire, supplemented by interviews with Walt plus excellent biographical information, make this a solid reference source for Mickey-philes."-Films in Review

"Another fine entry in the remarkable "Popular Culture Bio-bibliographies" series..."-Choice October 1993

"What Jackson has created here is a Disney reference without bias or judgement, a jewel beyond price for the serious researcher. Jackson has done a superb job in researching and sorting through the wide variety of conflicting material that exists. This would make a fine work for academic libraries, film libraries, and popular culture collections."-Animation Journal
